Following our fantastic weekend in Wexford last week it was back to championship action for our U14 football squad on Wednesday evening with a trip over to Kildimo to play Kildimo Pallaskenry.
On a great playing surface we played the first half with the aid of a slight breeze and while we had some good possession we found it hard against a solid Kildimo defence to convert our chances however we soon settled into the game and some fine points from Richard and Colin helped to settle us.

It was then time for our forwards to come into the game and some great passing and ball distribution helped Killian to rattle the net a couple of times leaving us with a nice but by no means comfortable lead at half time knowing that we would be playing into a strong breeze in the second half.

Kildimo Pallas had some strong footballers who knew how to run at our defence and threatened us early on in the second half but credit to our full back line who read the threat very well and inevitably cut out their final pass on a good few occasions to launch us into attack mode again.

Goals from Colin C and Fergal with some lovely points from Colin H , Cathal and Patrick helped us push on in the second half and win on a final scoreline of 7:10 to 1:4.

Our next football match is on Friday 17th July, away to Bruff.

Panel on the night: Sam Riordan, Padraig Byrnes, John Bourke, Darragh O Keeffe, Philip O Toole, Patrick Dolphin, Cathal O Neill, Colin Haigney, James Conheady, Richard Murphy, Cian Enright, Killian Scanlon, Colin Coughlan, Fergal Egan, Rian O Byrne.
